I create handcrafted floral accessories for your special Maharashtrian traditions. From traditional Bashing and Mundavli to custom baskets for Javal ceremonies, let's add fresh, fragrant charm to your rituals.
This is a fresh flower Bashing, a traditional head ornament worn by the bride and groom in Maharashtrian weddings. This piece is handcrafted from jasmine buds with pink accents and delicate pearl strings.

This video shows a pair of peacock-themed baskets I decorated for a traditional Javal ceremony for twins. In Agri-Koli culture, these baskets are used to carry the baby to the temple, and I was honored to create this special set.
About Traditional Maharashtrian Floral Art
Because I use only fresh flowers like tagar and roses, your ornaments stay fragrant throughout your entire ceremony. Whether you need a specific color scheme for your Mundavli or a custom-themed basket for a sacred ritual, I handcraft every piece to match your outfit and the occasion perfectly.
Honouring Our Traditions
Traditions hold our culture together, and for Maharashtrian weddings and ceremonies, the right floral touch is everything. I pour my love for our culture into every piece, ensuring it feels authentic rather than mass-produced.
Bashing & Mundavli
These are more than accessories; they are central to the wedding vidhi. I design Mundavli using jasmine buds (tagar) and yellow petals to match Haldi or wedding palettes. My Bashing designs are sturdy yet delicate, providing a classic look that respects the significance of the ceremony for both bride and groom.
Custom Baskets for Javal
Cultural traditions like the Javal ceremony (a baby's first haircut) are close to my heart, especially within the Agri-Koli community. I create bespoke baskets—like my popular peacock-themed designs—that blend sturdy, practical bases with fresh, vibrant floral arrangements. These are crafted to be visually stunning for temple visits and rituals.
Why Choose Fresh?
Using real jasmine, roses, and orchids provides a scent and texture that synthetic alternatives cannot match. Every piece is made fresh to order, ensuring it looks and smells beautiful when it matters most.
Logistics & Booking
Based in Dombivli, I serve the Mumbai Metropolitan Area, Pune, and Kolhapur. To ensure I can source the highest quality fresh blooms for your specific date, I recommend booking at least a week before your event.
